Select two or more layers, configure your grid, and click Apply — or enable Auto (lock icon) to re-run Arrange every time a parameter changes.

## Direction

* Horizontal: Layers fill rows left-to-right, then wrap to the next row.
* Vertical: Layers fill columns top-to-bottom, then wrap to the next column.

## Layout

* Count: Specify a fixed number of items per row/column.
* Fit to Comp: Auto-fit as many items per line as the composition width or height allows.
* Custom Size: Auto-fit as many items per line as a custom pixel size allows.

## Items per Row / Items per Column

* Number of items per line. Only used when Layout is set to Count.

## Custom Size

* Pixel size used to fit items per line. Only used when Layout is set to Custom Size.

## Gap

* Pixel gap between items in the grid.

## Bounds

* Cell: Each grid cell is sized to the *largest layer* in the selection. Layers are centered inside their cell — useful when items have different sizes but should sit on a uniform grid.
* Layer: Each layer occupies only its own size, end-to-end with the gap between them.

## Auto

* Re-run Arrange whenever a parameter changes, so you can dial in spacing visually.
